Sec. 26-196. - City Council call-up procedures.
West Covina Zoning Code · 2026-06 edition · updated 2026-09-25 · West Covina
Notwithstanding any appeal procedures or any other procedures provided by law, two (2) City Council members may, in writing, call for the review of the decisions of the Planning Commission within ten (10) days following the Planning Commission's meeting at which the decision was made.
If called-up for review by the City Council, the item will be heard de novo at a future City Council meeting within sixty (60) days of the initial call-up date, or a later date requested or agreed to by the applicant in writing. If the City Council does not vote, the decision of the Planning Commission shall be final. All provisions for notice and hearing applicable to the Planning Commission for that type of decision shall
apply to the City Council in conducting its review; provided, however, that if an item is called-up by the City Council for a de novo hearing, the notices shall be given to owners of properties within a one thousand (1,000) foot radius of the subject property.
If an appeal from a decision has been properly filed, the matter shall be conducted as an appeal subject to all applicable requirements for such appeals, rather than a review subject to this section.
(Ord. No. 2519, § 5(Exh. A), 2-20-24; Ord. No. 2525, § 52, 3-18-25)
